Goodbye to 2008 and all that

    So that's just about over then. What was planned to be momentous in
    one way (racing in the TT) became momentous in another (nearly dying).
    Not sure whether it's a glass half-empty or half-full situation, so I
    think I'll go with half-full. I'm just about fixed now, so I suppose
    I'll have to get used to working for a living as from January.

    Anyway, to everyone else who survived 2008 - I wish you a good
    evening, and that 2009 brings all you hope for.

    Yeah yeah, whatever. Just another year closer to grey hair for me.

    I'm jolly glad you didn't die, even if you did **** up my enjoyment of
    the TT pretty badly, you selfish ****.

    Happy New Year, everyone.

    The glass is not half empty, or half full - it is simply the wrong
    size glass.

  6. And you. And all. It's been a mixed year (whatever you think your kids
    can throw at you, be prepared for the unexpected!) and it hasn't ended
    well. Oddly, on a personal level, I'm quite optimistic for 2009.

    Although medical science will need to improve fucking rapidly to give me
    some of what I want in 2009.

    Yes, indeed. You might be a smarmy, greasy, uneducated mimbo, but I too
    am glad you didn't buy the farm.

    2008 was pretty quiet from our point of view, except that we finally got
    off our arses and set the wheels in motion, to leave France. To 'go
    home', so to speak.

    Happy New Year to everyone, even those who quite obviously hate my guts
    and wish me dead.

    You can get that in Thailand, apparently.

    It will be odd having an office based job again. As the contract is working
    for a local authority I doubt there will be much actual work involved...

    So, extrapolating from what you said to darsy a day or two ago, he's
    actually straight and she's a rug muncher?
    I'm looking forward to 2009 at a personal level. It may become trying at
    times as mum & her sister are not in the best of health.

    They're no bloody good, too small.

    I'd go round in circles with one leg smaller than the other.
